Song: Take A Picture

It's pretty easy, here's how it goes:

The riff during the intro, verses, and through most of the song, is
basically
Asus2 - A - Asus2 -A - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4 - D

you can play it like this:

|--0---0---0------0----|--0---0---0------0----|
|--0---0---2------2----|--0---0---2------2----|
|--2---2---2------2----|--2---2---2------2----|
|--2---2---2------2----|--2---2---2------2----|
|--0---0---0------0----|--0---0---0------0----|
|----------------------|----------------------|

|--3---3---2------2----|--3---3---2------2----|
|--3---3---3------3----|--3---3---3------3----|
|--2---2---2------2----|--2---2---2------2----|
|--0---0---0------0----|--0---0---0------0----|
|----------------------|----------------------|
|----------------------|----------------------|


The chords to the chorus are like this:
Asus2 - Dsus2 - B5 - C
with a little thing at the end, you can play it like this:

(strumming)
|--0--|--0--|-----|
|--0--|--3--|-----|
|--2--|--2--|--4--|
|--2--|--0--|--4--|
|--0--|-----|--2--|
|-----|-----|-----|

|--3--3--3----3--3----3--|
|--3--2--3----3--2----0--|
|--0--0--0----0--0----0--|
|--0---------------------|
|------------------------|
|--3---------------------|


An electric comes in over the verse riff later, which does something like
this:

|--0---0---0------0----|--0---0---0------0----|
|--0---0---2------2----|--0---0---2------2----|
|--2---2---2------2----|--2---2---2------2----|
|--2---2---2------2----|--2---2---2------2----|
|--0---0---0------0----|--0---0---0------0----|
|----------------------|----------------------|

|---------------------|---------------------|
|---------------------|---------------------|
|---------------------|---------------------|
|--5---5---4----------|--5---5---4----------|
|----------0----------|----------0----------|
|---------------------|---------------------|



There's another guitar layered over before and during the "Hey dad...."
